CHAPTER 3 ; INVESTIGATION

[themodsgrimm]

The Story Continues... CHAPTER 3 - WEEK 3??? Narrators Remain ; The clock begins to chime, and on the first note, curfew lifts. Your doors swing open, whether you are ready or not. Leaving your room is a blur. The person you fell asleep beside — are they still there? Have they vanished? Were they ever there at all? You can't seem to recall clearly. What you are most aware of is the pervading sense of wrongness in the air, and how you can't hear anything but the chime of the clock. Even the sounds of your own voice and your own footsteps do not reach your ears. By the time the time the clock strikes nine, you know one thing to be true: blood has been spilt. Search the castle carefully — you wouldn't want to miss a single important detail, would you...? Welcome to this week's investigation post! This time, the mods will be providing top-levels for you to search. Please note the Locations page for your reference. Evidence — or lack thereof — will be noted in these threads. We ask that group threads consist of no more than 2-3 characters. After the discovery of the body (or bodies) and any pertinent evidence, an IC announcement concluding the investigation will go up. You are then free to make your own toplevels on this post for any threads you would like to have between the end of the investigation and the start of the trial. If you have any questions, please ask on our Discord server or ping us on plurk. Please direct pings to Britt (bloodthirstiest) and Danielle (entrappings), as they will be taking point on this investigation! Instructions on this week's investigation can be found in a pin in the General chat! full navigation. locations taken (statuses) stories (profiles) info & faq wishing well private conversations

[No missing fingies (or other body parts)! It looks like aside from being set on fire, they were respectful of Jae-ha's puppet. I mean, as respectful as an arsonist can be.]

I'm gonna punch him when I see him.

[ maybe you should be thanking him, hikage

in any case, he stands up, shaking his head, and holsters his weapon again. ]

Isn't there a backstage? We should check that out, too.

I checked out the pulley area, but it doesn't hurt to take another look.

[Hikage is uno grumpy boy, maybe it will hurt him to check again with that attitude.]

[psychedelica]

[ he's back and checking! Hikage climbs up to the second level to investigate the walkway proper. Any signs of weirdness about?! ]

[axilium]

[he just follows hikage, because yeah.]

[themodsgrimm]

[Yea. Just two otome's searching a walkway. They'll find where Jae-ha puppet's strings were cut, but aside from that, nothing else out of the ordinary.]

[psychedelica]

... Weird.

[ maybe someone was just really, really mad at Jae-ha...? Hikage turns to Belph, shaking his head. ]

Should we go tell the others?

[axilium]

[was it hikage]

Might as well...

[CAN THEY LEAVE THE SMOKE YET.]

[themodsgrimm]

[GET OUT TBH :/]
